In celebration of families, the Meadowbrook Community Association (MCA) will be holding a Winter Sports Day on BC Family Day, Monday February 9, from noon until 3 p.m. at McGinty Lake.

MCA members, residents of Meadowbrook and Woods Corner, and any other outdoor recreation enthusiasts are welcome to skate, cross-country ski, snowshoe, or just visit.

The MCA will clear a portion of the lake, light a bonfire, and provide hot chocolate. Bring your skates, skis, snowshoes, snacks and folding chairs if you wish.

The MCA is currently leading a project to preserve and enhance McGinty Lake, located eight km northeast of Kimberley, as a recreational area. The plan includes re-fencing the lake, improving the picnic area, and using solar energy to provide reliable water for cattle without them having to access the lake itself. Come learn about the MCA’s plans and provide your ideas.

MCA memberships for 2015-16 will be available for $12 per person. There is no requirement to be a resident of Meadowbrook or Woods Corner. Anyone 18 years and older who supports preserving and enhancing these areas may become a member.
